A gigantic cigar-shaped craft shadowed a NATO airliner over the Atlantic in 1963, the same year similar motherships appeared over Australia, Canada, and the skies of a Britain overrun by headless creatures and desecrated churches.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/1963DarkForcesREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p87kmstFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: A “gigantic cigar-shaped UFO” is spotted over the Atlantic in 1963, but the witness is so terrified by her experiences that it takes her twenty years to come forward to tell her story. And in that same year, elsewhere in the United Kingdom, people were dealing with dark, paranormal, even satanic forces - with numerous events that still remain unexplained.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = The Foreboding00:01:18.783 = Show Open00:02:35.157 = The 1963 Atlantic UFO – Part 100:16:32.034 = The 1963 Atlantic UFO – Part 2 ***00:32:15.933 = 1963: Dark Paranormal Forces Invade The UK – Part 1 ***00:50:26.206 = 1963: Dark Paranormal Forces Invade The UK – Part 2 ***00:56:44.362 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakLISTEN ON PODCAST APPS: Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: January 05, 2022This episode of Weird Darkness opens over the north Atlantic in May 1963, where a NATO English-language secretary based in Paris, flying on a near-empty DC-8 carrying fifty staff from Orly Airport to ministerial meetings in Ottawa, looked from her window and saw a dark grey, torpedo-shaped object six to seven thousand feet below the plane — its rear cut off sharply and squarely, with no wings, windows, or visible propulsion — before it vanished into cloud and the aircraft dropped into violent turbulence. Terrified and certain no one else aboard had noticed, she said nothing for almost twenty years, until a 1980 letter to Flying Saucer Review brought the account to light and the magazine published it the following year. The segment threads her sighting into a longer record of cigar-shaped craft: Melvin Vagle Jr. and his wife spotting a windowed object hovering over a plowed field near Grafton, Nebraska on November 22, 1961; Miss Footner tracking a silver, hundred-foot craft over Saanich Mountain near Victoria, British Columbia in early 1960; Reverend Lionel Browning and his wife photographing a grey mothership over Cressy, Tasmania on October 4, 1960 as smaller discs darted out of the clouds and explosions later shook nearby houses; RCMP Constable James Blackwood watching a cigar-shaped object near Clarenville, Newfoundland on November 26, 1978 mirror his patrol car's flashing lights for nearly two hours; a couple camping at Hexham, New South Wales in late December 1984 seeing discs swarm a lit craft that seemed to carry a helmeted figure; and an anonymous Swedish driver on Route 55 near Orsundsbro in June 1985 stepping out of her car to study a windowed craft she first mistook for a police helicopter.From there the episode crosses to England, where the night of November 16, 1963 brought four teenagers walking home from a dance past Sandling Park near Hythe, Kent face to face with a human-sized, headless creature with wings on its back; seventeen-year-old John Flaxton and eighteen-year-old Mervyn Hutchinson had first watched a bright gold oval descend behind the trees, and Flaxton felt a sudden, unexplained cold as the thing came at them through the woodland. The same evening in Saltwood, Tony Harrison and three companions saw a glowing oval and a figure in a scarlet cloak holding a flickering lantern, and within days John McGoldrick discovered three giant footprints, each roughly two feet long, near the spot where Keith Croucher had reported an identical object over a football field. The story then opens out into a year-long British wave: a flying saucer interfering with a woman's car headlights near Bluebell Hill in Kent; two men setting up a tripod that fired colored lights into the sky over the Britannia Barracks in Norwich; a market researcher named Joelle in Castleton encountering men who claimed to be extraterrestrials with bases on two of Jupiter's moons; and a dome-shaped craft that reportedly landed at RAF Cosford on December 10, washing the base in green light before vanishing. Stranger creatures shared the year — the Surrey Puma and other big cats stalking Shooter's Hill in London from July 18, a half-man, half-horse centaur seen in Sefton Park by witnesses including a police officer, a bulldog-headed monster rising beside two fishermen on Loch Ness, and a dinosaur-like animal that scattered seals along Cardigan Bay and left a half-eaten carcass behind. The episode closes on a darker thread of occult activity: two children found playing with a human skull taken from the ruined St. Mary's Church at Clophill in Bedfordshire, where Maltese crosses, cockerel feathers, and six tampered women's graves were uncovered; six decapitated horse heads and a cow, their jaws wrenched apart, discovered in Bluebell Woods at Caddington; clay effigies pierced with thorns and a sheep's head studded with thirteen thorns nailed up at Castle Rising in Norfolk; and a group of self-styled Devil worshippers interrupted mid-ritual at an active church in Westham, Sussex on December 7 — all set against a 1963 that began with one of the worst winters on record, claimed Labour leader Hugh Gaitskell and the poet Sylvia Plath, saw Ian Brady and Myra Hindley begin the Moors murders, and ended weeks after the assassination of President Kennedy.

In this week's story time, Summer tells the story of the ancient mystics that chose to brick themselves in cells, until death do they part from their bricks. The most famous anchoress, Julian of Norwich, is widely considered the first published female author in the English language. She may also have been the first feminist cat lady. Tune in! The post Medieval Mystics Behind Bricks appeared first on Sheologians.

What happens when pain tears apart the version of God you were handed? In this deeply moving conversation, Jason sits down with author Katherine Gantlett to explore grief, miscarriage, breast cancer, hope, prayer, and the relentless goodness of God revealed in Jesus. Together they wrestle through questions of suffering, sovereignty, identity, union, and what it means to discover that God never abandoned us in winter seasons. From Brad Jersak and Paul Young to Psalm 22, Julian of Norwich, “Hygge for the Heartbroken,” and the healing power of presence, this episode is a raw and beautiful invitation to stop future-tripping, embrace the divine dance, and discover that even in the depths, Christ is deeper still.Katherine Gantletthttps://katherinegantlett.org.uk/JOIN A Family Story's Mailing Listhttps://dashing-field-76805.myflodesk.com/pie4be6wtoJOIN the Rethinking God with Tacos Facebook Group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/godandtacosFollow Rethinking God with Tacos on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/rethinkinggodwithtacos/Follow Jason's personal Facebook page at:https://www.facebook.com/afamilystory.org/Follow Jason on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/jasonclarkis/Follow Jason on X at: https://x.com/jasonclarkis SEND A DONATION!!https://app.moonclerk.com/pay/36393kxxeh8

Juliet talks to poet and writer Lotte L.S. about Red Herring Press, which Lotte set up in 2020 to print, publish and distribute local writing in Great Yarmouth in Norfolk. They discuss what Red Herring Press does; how it grew out of the COVID-19 lockdown; Lotte's idea of ‘amateurising professionalism' and the advantages of working outside a literary market; how cheap commercial rents and lack of affordable housing shape the Press, and the town's arts scene more broadly; the Press' Creative Writing workshops and publications; their membership model and how other local groups use their space; the town's relationship with Norwich, a designated UNESCO City of Literature with the National Centre for Writing and the famous Creative Writing MA at the University of East Anglia; Great Yarmouth's past as a fishing town, its recent history of deindustrialisation and migration, and how their publications draw on this; and Lotte's long essay An Economy of Starlings (2024), responding to the election of Rupert Lowe as a Reform MP in 2024, and foundation of the far-right Restore Britain.

In this special programme, Catherine Baril sat down with Margaret Duff, East Anglia Region Representative for HCPT, to explore the remarkable ways this charity transforms lives — not just for the young pilgrims it brings to Lourdes each year, but for the countless volunteers who give their time, energy and hearts in support.From those who travel alongside the pilgrims to Lourdes, to those who roll up their sleeves to raise vital funds back home, the HCPT community is one built on faith, generosity, and joy.

Life does not always unfold the way we expect. Loss, disappointment, and suffering can leave us feeling bitter and abandoned. Yet the story of Ruth reminds us that God is still at work even when we cannot see Him. Through Ruth's loyal faith, Naomi's restoration, and Boaz's redemption, we discover that God's redemption turns our ruins into testimonies. Ultimately, Boaz points us to Jesus Christ, our Great Redeemer, who restores what sin and suffering have broken.

Faith is the most valuable family heirloom. But too often, faith fades over generations. How can I have such contagious faith, that those after me can't help but follow Jesus fully? Let's look at the famous story of the ancient Jewish judges to learn how faith failed, and how we can build durable faith that lasts for generations.

In ep 175 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Johnny Neal joins Sam and Mark to talk about audiobook narration in a character voice versus your own voice! We learn how to muddy the words and not be so precise when the script calls for it... there's a read with definite push-pull all the way through, a discussion about why listeners speed up an audiobook to 1.25 times the speed (when we think we should be narrating slower) and Johnny gives Sam a masterclass in sighing.Our VO question this week is all about protecting your voice when doing alien and monster voices.Get involved! Have you got a Wildcard suggestion that we should try or an idea for the show? Send it to us via Mark or Sam's social media or email it directly to podcast@britishvoiceover.co.ukScript 1There will, of course, be an abundance of sentimental items in your indoor storage area. Your childhood swimming certificates, years of birthday cards, anniversary cards, wedding cards and condolence cards all bundled up together, artwork from your children that you just couldn't bear to part with, diaries and calendars that are decades old. It's the natural place to store them, right?Well, actually, our preference would be that you bring sentimental items into the body of the home so you can see and enjoy them on a regular basis and get that warm fuzzy feeling inside.Script 2A gust of wind beat against my clothes and lifted my hair. The storm clouds overhead were a dark column of wrath and spite; harbingers for the destruction of Balastt and the death of my family. I watched from afar as an earth-bound comet of black magic broke through our outermost wall to let the Neln army pour into our castle.The true battle had begun.Warm, gentle fingers touched my hand and slowly interlocked with mine.

Welcome back! This week the ladies review The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna. It is a cozy fantasy novel about Mika Moon, a lonely witch who must hide her magic but is recruited to teach three young witches at a mysterious house called Nowhere House, leading her to find a found family and a slow-burn romance with the prickly librarian, Jamie, while navigating the challenges of their secret society and a potential threat to their home.

Fueled by faith, Matt and Quan cover the whole landscape this week — a heated Knicks playoff debate, Quan's 7-mile trek across Norwich and the marathon challenge it sparked, and the real meat of the episode: why you'll never feel "comfortable," how unhealed pain always resurfaces, and why holding a grudge is just blocking your own blessings. Plus the part most people skip — forgiving yourself. Real talk, a lot of laughs, and a reminder that you can never do wrong by doing right. New episodes every Monday. Think critically, speak infamously.

Have you ever known exactly what you were supposed to do but you just didn't want to do it? Perhaps it was somewhere you didn't want to go. Or something you didn't want to do, like apologizing. Or a leap of faith that scares you. How can we trust that doing the right thing will turn out better than doing it our own way? Come and see how God taught Joshua to trust Him through life-threatening situations as God's promises came true right before his eyes.

Chris Stark is leading the UK's Clean Power 2030 mission. As Head of Mission Control at DESNZ, no one sees the constraint costs, grid bottlenecks and reform of National Pricing trade-offs more clearly. The UK is building a clean power system at a pace not seen since the 1960s, connecting record volumes of wind and solar while transmission, storage and gas all reshape around them. Constraint costs have hit £1.7 billion, gas is being squeezed off the system, and the government has just rewritten the rules of the wholesale market.Chris joins Ed Porter to break down what Mission Control is actually delivering, where flexibility and storage fit into the 2030 plan, and what Reformed National Pricing means for investors, generators and consumers.They cover:Why building UK transmission lines takes 8-10 years — and why bringing two projects forward by a year is worth £4bn to consumers.Why the UK chose to build the grid and the generation simultaneously, and the risks that creates.Why the strategic spatial energy plan is the biggest energy decision coming in the next 12 months and how it sets up a "build it once" network for the future.The reform of National Pricing decision, what the wholesale CfD means in practice and how electricity is being de-linked from gas.Why flexibility is the "forgotten third child" of the energy transition and how dunkelflaute, long-duration storage and household batteries fit into the 2030s system.Chris's contrarian take on carbon pricing - why he thinks the Treasury's decision to remove the Carbon Price Support from gas signals carbon pricing is "coming down the list of things that matters.”Want to model how Clean Power 2030, REMA and the wholesale CFD reshape GB power prices?

Constraint costs have hit £1.7 billion, gas is being squeezed off the system, and the government has just rewritten the rules of the wholesale market.Chris joins Ed Porter to break down what Mission Control is actually delivering, where flexibility and storage fit into the 2030 plan, and what Reformed National Pricing means for investors, generators and consumers.They cover:Why building UK transmission lines takes 8-10 years — and why bringing two projects forward by a year is worth £4bn to consumers.Why the UK chose to build the grid and the generation simultaneously, and the risks that creates.Why the strategic spatial energy plan is the biggest energy decision coming in the next 12 months and how it sets up a "build it once" network for the future.The reform of National Pricing decision, what the wholesale CfD means in practice and how electricity is being de-linked from gas.Why flexibility is the "forgotten third child" of the energy transition and how dunkelflaute, long-duration storage and household batteries fit into the 2030s system.Chris's contrarian take on carbon pricing - why he thinks the Treasury's decision to remove the Carbon Price Support from gas signals carbon pricing is "coming down the list of things that matters.”Want to model how Clean Power 2030, REMA and the wholesale CFD reshape GB power prices?

In this episode of The Writing Life Podcast, Norwich-based writer Ashley Hickson-Lovence discusses experimenting with narrative, form, and structure in his latest novel, About to Fall Apart – a thrilling kaleidoscope of thoughts, failures, disappointments and hope.   Ashley Hickson-Lovence earned his PhD in Creative and Critical Writing at the University of East Anglia. He has lectured English and Creative Writing at Brunel University, Arts University Bournemouth, University of East Anglia and the University of Suffolk. He is the author of the poetry collection Why I Am Not a Bus Driver, the acclaimed novels The 392 and Your Show, and the 2024 prize-winning YA novel in verse Wild East.   Set across one weekend, About to Fall Apart is the exhilarating story of a man of mixed heritage – living on the Irish border – as he tries to stay positive, reconnect with his children and maybe, even, find his own birth mother.   He sat down with fellow writer Sophie Yan Yee Lau, who he mentors through the Escalator New Writing Fellowships, for a candid conversation about the freedoms and constraints of setting a novel within a tight timeline. They also explore writing from personal experience, using poetic techniques in prose writing, and creating characters inspired by real-life people.

Fear is an important emotion; it helps keep us safe and avoid harm. But fear can also cause us to hesitate, delay, and avoid important decisions. Israel was on the doorstep of the Promised Land, ready to receive God's blessing, and fear crept in. Let's learn together how to conquer fear and step into freedom.

Remixer and DJ Louis La Roche joins Chris Hawkins to chat about his career in music so far. From discovering dance music through Fatboy Slim and building tracks from samples, to remixing global artists and navigating the realities of life as a touring DJ.  Louis reflects on growing up in Norwich, becoming obsessed with records at a young age, and launching his career after early support from management and booking agents while still a teenager. He also discusses the pressure of being compared to major artists early in his career, the challenge of staying authentic, and why owning his own label, Ever After Records, became one of the best decisions he ever made.  The conversation also explores the economics of remix culture, including why many remixers never receive royalties even when tracks become huge successes, alongside behind-the-scenes stories involving official remixes for artists including Madonna, Basement Jaxx and Bruno Mars.  Elsewhere, Louis opens up about touring burnout, tinnitus, club culture, introversion, creative longevity in dance music, and his admiration for artists like Daft Punk, DJ Shadow and Aphex Twin.  How Fatboy Slim inspired Louis to start DJing at age 12 Growing up obsessed with disco, funk and electronic music Leaving music college after being signed at 17 Why Louis chose to start his own label instead of signing to one The truth about remix fees and royalty structures Official remix stories involving Madonna and Bruno Mars Supporting Kylie Minogue on arena tours Touring burnout, tinnitus and protecting hearing Why dark, intimate clubs still matter Louis' favourite remix of all time His production techniques and DJ floor fillers Learn more about your ad choices.

We live in an unforgiving age. Even as we know that Jesus commanded forgiveness, extending it can seem impossible, impractical, self-harming, even unjust. In these times of outrage and fear, what can help us become forgiving people?Author Amy Orr-Ewing joined us for a recent online conversation, where we explored these questions for a live audience:"The church needs to recapture the vision of forgiveness as an actuality. This is something real rooted in the sacrifice of Jesus at the cross. And it's that that has actually been the animating force of the Christian faith throughout history."This episode is drawn from an Online Conversation in 2026.

What would change tomorrow if you forgot about serving others — and simply served the work?In Week 5 of our post-Easter series, we learn that for work to become a delight and fulfillment, it has to become something we submit to — not a means of getting something, but the medium through which we offer our whole selves to God. And in one of the most counterintuitive moves in the series: serving the work — not the people — is actually the only way to truly serve the people.Reflection Questions:What would be different if I "forgot the community and served the work" tomorrow?Where have I experienced the goodness of someone who was truly "serving the work"?Scripture: Colossians 3:15-24, Proverbs 3:6, Romans 12:1, John 6:38, Matthew 6:8-10Voices:Dorothy Sayers, Why Work?

What if the deepest encounters with the divine are not dramatic or ecstatic, but quiet, steady, and hidden in ordinary life?Mark Vernon returns to Nomad to explore silence, mysticism, and the search for God after disillusionment. Reflecting on his own journey through priesthood, contemplative practice, psychotherapy and spiritual direction, Mark speaks about finding a form of Christianity rooted less in performance or certainty, and more in attention, presence and the inner life.In this conversation, Tim and Mark discuss The Cloud of Unknowing, Julian of Norwich, William Blake, spiritual homelessness, and why the mystical tradition may still have something vital to offer those who feel drawn to Christ but no longer fit easily within institutional church life.Following the interview Nomad hosts Tim and Anna reflect on their own relationship with mysticism, and the way it has shaped their evolving faith.

Clive Lewis came by the PoliticsJOE studio this week to break down the runners and riders in a potential leadership challenge against Keir Starmer. After a disastrous showing in the local elections, questions over Keir Starmer's leadership of his party - and the country - have only intensified. Particularly from within his own ranks, the Prime Minister has been battling against backbenchers eager to share their fury with the running of the party. Clive Lewis has long been a critic of Keir Starmer, calling last year for Andy Burnham to take his Norwich seat in order to contest a leadership election. Today he joins Ava to break down where his party goes from here.Subscribe to How to Rebuild Britain now: https://linktr.ee/howtorebuildbritain Hosted on Acast.

We all have a bit of a "control freak" inside us. When God feels distant or "up there," we often grab the steering wheel of our lives, convinced we know best. But God's heart has always been to move closer. From the smoke and thunder of Mount Sinai to the Tabernacle in the center of the camp, God has been making a way to be with His people. Come discover how surrendering our need for control opens the door to experiencing the presence of the God.

What a remarkable Norwich City season. After the rollercoaster that 2025/26 served up, it was only right that we reflected on a unique campaign in unique circumstances. We pitched up at the Yard in Norwich city centre, with a live audience, to dissect and debate the key talking points from a season that saw supporters feel the lowest of lows and the highest of highs.Recap our first-ever LIVE podcast here with Connor Southwell, Paddy Davitt and Adam Harvey bringing the curtain down on a season that few will forget.  There were always going to be some teething issues, and sadly, the audio didn't record properly for the first half, but it is clear in part two.

What does the raucous laughter of Nicki Minaj and Billy Graham have to do with 14th century saint? Find out in PART TWO of our MOST requested episodes ever -- diving deep into the question "Who is Saint Julian of Norwich???" Author of Revelations of Divine Love, coiner of the phrase "All Shall Be Well," and delighter in God's delight, St. Julian is such a powerful visionary and leader we needed two episodes to do her justice. We're joined again by the The Rev. Dr. Amy Laura Hall, one of Lizzie's professors from her time at Duke Divinity School. In part two, we explore "Christ as our true mother," the nature of the devil, and we see how Julian has echoes for us to consider in today's religious landscape. We also get a little teaser for Dr. Hall's new book, out in May 2026, called ERECTING THE PULPIT: MUSCULAR CHRISTIANITY FROM TEDDY ROOSEVELT TO DONALD TRUMP. Amy Laura Hall is Associate Professor of Christian Ethics and Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies at Duke University, where she has taught since 1999. She is the author of four books, including Conceiving Parenthood: American Protestantism and the Spirit of Reproduction (2007) and Laughing at the Devil: Seeing the World with Julian of Norwich (2018). A noted authority on Christianity and culture in the U.S., Hall has also contributed provocative essays on Protestantism and politics to Religion Dispatches and Religion News Service.

What does Rage Against the Machine and motherly images of God have to do with a 14th century saint?  Turns out ... a LOT. We are (finally) doing one of the MOST requested episodes ever -- diving deep into the question "Who is Saint Julian of Norwich???" And in order to dive into this saint whose revelatory witness of radical love, the wounds of Christ, and laughing at the nothingness of the devil, we have called in an expert: The Rev. Dr. Amy Laura Hall, one of Lizzie's professors from her time at Duke Divinity School.  This conversation was so rich that we had to split into two parts, so join us this week for PART ONE where we get a lay of the land of 14th century England, the bubonic plague, feudalism and its violence, and in this despairing time how Saint Julian received an incandescent vision of Christ's love for the whole world.  Amy Laura Hall is Associate Professor of Christian Ethics and Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies at Duke University, where she has taught since 1999. She is the author of four books, including Conceiving Parenthood: American Protestantism and the Spirit of Reproduction (2007) and Laughing at the Devil: Seeing the World with Julian of Norwich (2018). A noted authority on Christianity and culture in the U.S., Hall has also contributed provocative essays on Protestantism and politics to Religion Dispatches and Religion News Service.

In this episode, Lurch and I are joined by Patreon Member Matt Haywood and we talk about Firearms Legal Protection.  Being protected by a Firearms Legal Protection plan gives gun owners immediate access to experienced attorneys after a self-defense incident, which is one of the most critical moments to have professional guidance. Instead of scrambling to find legal help while under extreme stress, members can contact a 24/7 emergency hotline and be connected with a lawyer who understands self-defense law. This early legal support can help protect your rights during questioning, prevent costly mistakes, and ensure you navigate the legal system properly from the very beginning. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Another major benefit is financial protection against the high costs associated with criminal and civil defense. Legal cases involving firearms can quickly become expensive, with attorney fees, expert witnesses, investigations, and court costs adding up fast. A Firearms Legal Protection plan helps cover these expenses, reducing the financial burden on the member and their family. This allows individuals to focus on their defense and recovery rather than worrying about how to afford a potentially lengthy legal battle. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Beyond legal and financial coverage, these plans also provide peace of mind and education. Members often gain access to training resources, legal insights, and guidance on responsible firearm ownership and use of force laws. Knowing you have a structured plan in place can make a significant difference in confidence and preparedness, helping ensure that if you ever face a self-defense situation, you are not navigating the aftermath alone.

"I am a freak from Norwich, England! And I have dreamt of this since I was 13 years old! And it's not just mine. It belongs to my family!"We're taking you all on the road to WrestleMania, whether you like it or not! The story of Saraya "Paige" Knight is one of wrestling's most fascinating, and the biopic about her rise through WWE is historic for a reason. Let's talk about being a woman wrestling fan, what it means to be a teenage girl in a male-dominated industry, and what it means to be an alt girl in an industry that wants you to be a specific "type" of woman.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTEquality Ohio: https://www.equalityohio.org--------Article Referenced:'Fighting With My Family' Director Stephen Merchant On Stepping Beyond Comedy And Into The Wrestling Ring [Interview]: https://www.slashfilm.com/564479/stephen-merchant-interview-fighting-with-my-family/--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

WATCH THE EPISODE HEREIn this EpisodeHighlights & “Must-Listen” Moments* 0:00 — Another chaotic tech day: An hour of audio problems before the show even begins. The invitation went out to 250,000 people; by the time they got the show running, 16 lovely souls had joined. David was cursing like a sailor off-camera. Business as usual.* 1:56 — Amy's food week: Passover, Easter, cardamom buns, and scrambled eggs: Amy hosted both Passover and Easter in the same week — a double-whammy that was exhausting and wonderful. She made the cardamom buns from Juno Bakery in Copenhagen again (they came out beautifully), and then had a quiet week after that, during which she rediscovered the joy of perfect scrambled eggs: generous olive oil, high heat to start, back of a fork, constant small wrist movements to create tiny curds, then immediately turn the heat down. Creamy, silky, and completely underrated.* 4:30 — Amy's Weekends with Yankee shout-out: Episode two of the new season is out now on public television. Featured recipe: a tomato tartine from Groundswell Café in Tiverton, Rhode Island, right on the Farm Coast where Rhode Island and Massachusetts meet. Available on newengland.com.* 5:31 — David's food week: Homemade Spaghetti Amatriciana and Prime Heritage Pork Chops: David made homemade spaghetti amatriciana from scratch — the first time he's ever run spaghetti through the roller — and the results were restaurant-quality. His version includes guanciale or pancetta, DOP San Marzano tomatoes, a touch of balsamic vinegar (not traditional, but it lifts the whole dish), red pepper flakes, and Pecorino. Then, the main event: prime heritage pork chops from Boardman Bridge Butchers, two inches thick, served simply with salt, pepper, roasted sweet potato, and a salad. What pork tasted like before factory farming. David nearly wept.* 8:42 — ADHD update: David finally has a coach and a PsyD on his team. Progress is being made. The meds remain elusive, but we're getting there.* 9:01 — Introducing Jessica Battilana: Amy introduces their guest — Jessica Battilana, staff editor at King Arthur Baking Company, award-winning writer and recipe developer, co-host of the King Arthur podcast Things Bakers Know, co-author of the #1 New York Times bestselling The King Arthur Big Book of Bread, and author of her own book Repertoire: All the Recipes You Need. She also co-authored Vietnamese Home Cooking with Charles Phan, Tartine Book No. 3 with Chad Robertson, and Baking at 20th Century Cafe with Michelle Polzine — among 16 books total. Amy and Jessica have known each other for two decades, from their Sunset Magazine days in California to Boston Magazine, and ran into each other in line for Bridget Everett at a Boston theater just last week.* 10:40 — The new King Arthur pizza book: Jessica's 16th book, a King Arthur pizza book, just dropped. David has been raving about it on the show. Photographed by Andy Lee; the photography alone is stunning.* 13:35 — Jessica's broken oven (and a sneak peek at her next solo book): Jessica's home oven has been out for six to seven weeks. Making this particularly painful: she's working on her second solo cookbook — tentatively titled This Is What We're Having — due out (hopefully) next spring from Norton. One of the recipes is a banana cake with whipped caramel frosting, which created a bread-bowl-shaped lava situation during testing. The oven is definitely broken.* 16:09 — Q&A: Bread scoring tips from Peter in the audience: Jessica's advice — chill your dough overnight in the banneton, use a fresh double-sided razor blade (not a lame), and score with speed and confidence — hesitation causes dragging. David's tip: hold the lame at a very steep angle to create an ear, and don't be afraid to make two or three passes. Amy's breakthrough: line your banneton with a flour-sack towel dusted with flour before the overnight fridge proof. The cotton wicks away moisture and makes scoring dramatically easier.* 21:00 — About King Arthur Baking Company: America's oldest flour company, over 200 years old, based in Norwich, Vermont. Employee-owned (400 employee-owners), certified B Corp. The campus includes a café, a baking school, and a retail store. They produce roughly 500 original recipes a year, all free on their website. Jessica confirms: it really is as great as it seems.* 23:24 — David's King Arthur confession: The viral NYT chocolate chip cookie article — the one where you rest the dough for 36 hours — was developed using King Arthur cake flour and King Arthur bread flour. The Times doesn't allow brand names, but the secret is out.* 24:03 — Q&A: Best baking advice you've ever gotten? Jessica's answer: practice. Not a flashy answer, but an honest one. You learn something every single time you bake — the second attempt is always better than the first. Kate McDermott bakes a pie every single day and gives it away. Jessica's invented solution to the problem of getting enough repetitions: a silicone bread butt cheek (like the injection-training prop she used during IVF), so bakers could practice scoring without committing a whole loaf. It does not yet exist. Someone should make it. Amy's advice: read the recipe all the way through first. She ignores this about 50% of the time and always regrets it.* 29:18 — Baker vs. cook — is there a divide? Jessica doesn't have a favorite. She bakes bread, makes dessert, and cooks weeknight dinners for her family every night. Her forthcoming book This Is What We're Having is about exactly that — the family dinner, the one meal, take it or leave it.* 31:04 — Jessica's winding career path: La Varenne cooking school in France → Formaggio Kitchen in Cambridge (starting at the register, per her own career advice: “Take the worst job at the best place”) → private chefing → Chez Panisse receptionist in San Francisco (where every shift ended with a staff meal from the previous night's leftovers) → lunch lady at her kids' San Francisco elementary school, cooking for 250 children until the pandemic closed schools in March 2020.* 39:37 — Birthday cakes for every occasion: Jessica's go-to is the chocolate layer cake from Repertoire — creamed butter and sugar, chocolate throughout, ganache mounted with butter — always requested by her older son. For her younger son, who has turned vanilla, she reaches for King Arthur's Classic Birthday Cake: a reverse-creamed yellow cake with an almost-boxed-cake crumb that is genuinely excellent. Also discussed: Chef Zeb's Hot Milk Cake on the KA site (thin, soupy batter that bakes up with a chiffon-like crumb), and the triumphant return of ermine frosting — the original red velvet frosting, made from a cooked flour paste, that KA now offers in both vanilla and chocolate. It's poised for a comeback. Jessica's test kitchen calls it “weasel frosting,” which is not helping its case.* 42:12 — Amy and David's birthday cake confessions: Amy has long relied on Shirley Corriher's ultra-rich yellow cake (so much butter, so many egg yolks — in this economy?), with chocolate frosting for Scott and white frosting for herself. She also loves Rosie's Bakery's All Butter, Fresh Cream, Sugar-Packed Baking Book — particularly the frosting made in a blender with evaporated milk. David is Team Ermine.* 44:48 — A glimpse behind the curtain at KA's test kitchen: Jessica is literally being waved at through her office pod window to come taste baked Alaska for the new general baking book (cakes, cookies, pies) coming out fall 2027. All in a day's work.* 45:27 — Goodbye, Jessica: She's always happy to chat. Things Bakers Know is available as a podcast and a Substack. A visit to the King Arthur campus in Norwich, Vermont is highly recommended.Recipes Mentioned* Scrambled Eggs with Olive Oil (Amy's back-of-the-fork method)* Tomato Tartine (from Groundswell Café, Tiverton, RI; on newengland.com)* Cardamom Buns* Homemade Spaghetti Amatriciana (with guanciale, San Marzano tomatoes, balsamic vinegar)* Prime Heritage Pork Chops (from Boardman Bridge Butchers, New Milford, CT)* Portuguese Orange Olive Oil Cake* Banana Cake with Whipped Caramel Frosting (from Jessica's forthcoming book)* Chocolate Layer Cake with Ganache Butter Frosting (from Repertoire)* King Arthur Classic Birthday Cake (reverse-creamed yellow cake)* Chef Zeb's Hot Milk Cake (on kingarthurbaking.com)* Vanilla Ermine Frosting (on kingarthurbaking.com)* Chocolate Ermine Frosting (on kingarthurbaking.com)* Shirley Corriher's Ultra-Rich Yellow Cake (from BakeWise)* Rosie's Bakery Evaporated Milk Frosting (from The All Butter, Fresh Cream, Sugar-Packed Baking Book)* Baked Alaska (being taste-tested at KA HQ as we speak)Books and Publications* The King Arthur Baking Company Big Book of Bread by Jessica Battilana et al. — the #1 NYT bestseller Amy uses every week* King Arthur Baking Company's Book of Pizza Martin Philip and David Tamarkin with Jessica Battilana — just released* Repertoire: All the Recipes You Need by Jessica Battilana — published 2018* This Is What We're Having by Jessica Battilana — forthcoming from Norton, spring 2027* Vietnamese Home Cooking by Charles Phan (with Jessica Battilana)* Tartine Book No. 3 by Chad Robertson (with Jessica Battilana)* Baking at 20th Century Cafe by Michelle Polzine (with Jessica Battilana)* BakeWise by Shirley Corriher (source of Amy's go-to yellow cake)* Rosie's Bakery All-Butter, Fresh Cream, Sugar-Packed, No-Holds-Barred Baking Book by Judy Rosenberg* Rose's Christmas Cookies by Rose Levy Beranbaum (mentioned by Domenica Marchetti last episode — source of the almond crescent recipe)Where to Find Us* Amy Traverso* Instagram | Yankee* David Leite* Instagram | Pinterest | Facebook | Youtube* Jessica Battilana* Blog | Instagram | King Arthur This is a public episode.
